I was trying to get contact list from yahoo for POC. It was documented that the there is need to send a GET request to the URL with the user's ID and returns the contact list in XML format. I tried the same but facing the authentication message 401 from browser, normal console java application and from jsp too I guess I must try it using the open social API package. Can anybody please guide or suggest the solution for this problem if possible please post any code sample for any similar application in JAVA as I found most samples are unclear and in JSON only.
Thank You
Yahoo recently released an SDK for accessing Yahoo Social services via Java:

socialauth is a java library that allows importing contacts from Google, Yahoo, Hotmail and from other providers too.

I'm trying to create a web service to use the Google Plus API. I'm writing it in java, however I can't figure out what files I need and how I would go about posting to Google plus groups using Java
If you have any insite please could you post relavent links and helpful tips to help me out.
EDIT 1:
I have been playing around with the GooglePlus API provived by Google and have written a project based on the sample code given from this page: https://developers.google.com/+/domains/posts/creating
The code runs fine until it gets to the GoogleTokenResponse tokenResponse = flow.newTokenRequest(code).setRedirectUri(REDIRECT_URI).execute(); line. Where it returns a null error. I am copying the link provided in the console and pasting in the code, however everytime it just returned a null error, is there a specific part of the returned code given that causes an issue?
Posting to Google+ is only supported for accounts in a Google Apps Domain (and even then, with restrictions).
If you are logging in using a GMail account - you don't have an Apps Domain account. If you're logging in using some other email address (ie - you have an email address, but you can't use Google account features such as GMail or Google Drive with it) then you don't have an Apps Domain account. If you are using a Domain account, your Domain admin may need to enable Google+ for your Domain before this works.
See https://developers.google.com/+/domains/getting-started for the differences between what you can do with the Domains API and the regular Plus API.
Note that neither API lets you post to a Google+ Community or post publicly. The Domains API does let you post to a user's circle, as long as the members of that circle are also part of the Domain. The Domain API also lets you post to everyone in the Domain. The normal Plus API does not allow posting at all.
There is a third API, knows as the Pages API, which allows Pages to publicly post on their stream. This API, however, is available to a limited number of partners such as Hootsuite. You can read more at https://developers.google.com/+/api/pages-signup, but there isn't much more available publicly.
Your web service should first authenticate against Google. This authentication can either be using a service account (if you want to post only through one account) or users's account (if you want to post via user's account) using oAuth mechanism.
For more details about how to authenticate, refer to How to authenticate our users in our website with Google Account
Have a look at https://developers.google.com/+/api/ for detailed information about how Google Plus APIs can be used.
I Started working on Android Development for a while now. According to the tutorials im following im trying to retireve JSON info from the Twitter API...
As it was instructed in the tutorial, this is the code to use:
"http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=write the username"
HOWEVER, i got a response saying that the API is no longer available and i should migrate to API v1.1.
Could anyone please help on what to do to replace the url i was instructed to use??
NOTE
When i used the new url from API v1.1 : "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=twitterapi&count=2"
i get the following:
"{"errors":[{"message":"Bad Authentication data","code":215}]}"
Old Twitter API did not require Authentication for retrieving user_timeline, but v1.1 requires authentication to retrieve data(https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/statuses/user_timeline). According to Twitter API document user authentication is required for all the API v1.1 requests.
You can read more about authentication here

Facebook released an official SDK for Android applications. See this post on their developers blog.
You might want to try implementing the Android Facebook:Connect Library:
http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/User:Android
It's not official - but it seems fairly stable for most practical uses (allowing connecting and FQL queries, etc.)
I am trying to retrieve address book contacts through yahoo. After googling a bit, I came up to number of Yahoo developer pages and the api I was looking for.
However, at the moment I am not in position to give detail about my Web Application URL and BBAuth Success URL while registering for Yahoo app-id in order to yahoo app working. Since my application decision are still not yet decided. I am trying to make a POC (Proof of concept) for retrieving yahoo/hotmail contacts.
Is there any way that I can get address book details without app-id .. OR .. can I register for app-id without the Web Application URL and BBAuth Success URL .. OR .. what alternate I could use for a local POC development ? Any suggestions?
Go ahead and register an account with temporary URLs. When you finalize your URLs you can get another key with the real ones, or edit your existing information.
You might also want to check out YQL
http://developer.yahoo.com/yql/console/?q=select%20fields.value%20from%20social.contacts%20where%20guid%3Dme
It doesn't need an API key.
